Jeb Bush has been at the forefront in this whole matter. the fact that Congress had to wait until the last minute to try this is a MAJOR issue. They could have passed a really good law 6 months ago sparing her life.

Moreover, in 1999, the FL legislature could have passed a bill that DIDN'T call food and hydration "artificial life support" like it did.

Or, they could have REPEALED the law that says it is. WHY didn't they do that???

#239 Thank you for your thoughtful reply. I, too, admire Jeb Bush, but I have to wonder. I wish a law had been passed 6 months ago that could withstand scrutiny. However, here we are again, and woman who had much to offer her family is going to die. How on earth does Greer get away with forbidding Adult Protective Services from intervening! Who controls an ambitious, self-serving, corrupt, out-of-bounds judiciary, if not the Executive Branch? As I said, it's called BALANCE of powers for a reason. Works both ways.
